hello @urstin ,
Same issue for me and after tests, duration seems to be in minutes and not in seconds.
If I put 35 as value, episode under 35 minutes don't affect lights and episode longer than 35 minutes does.
Not at all, duration are well in seconds. The problems seems to be the return of getTotalTime() which can be 0 if the function is called to soon before the stream start.
